You would give something to the Baby.

A baby shower traditionally is to help mom get needed things for the baby, HOWEVER. I've had 3 baby shower so far in my life and really appreciate any gifts that were given to me, and never forget them... sometimes a new/expectant mom needs a little pampering ;) but if you choose to go this route, bring along something little for baby (receiving blanket, washcloths)

Depending on how well I know the mom to be.........it is a baby shower, so I bring a gift for the baby. If I'm really close i bring something for the mom to be.

I give something for th baby, usually I make a quilt for them. But if they have other kids, I will also get things for them so they don't feel left out with all the presents, seemingly all going to their new brother or sister.

Either...or both. Anything for the baby is really for the mom anyway, isn't it?
-
Give something that would make the Job of being mother easier or give something that would benefit the baby later in life like a college scholarship or savings bond.

I only went to one baby shower, and it was to be their first child. I knew the family had everything, so I bought a whole lot of books for them to save for the baby in his toddler years. Board books , cloth books etc.

I ususally get something for the baby....I'm a sucker when it comes to shopping for baby clothes. There just such damn cute stuff out there.. But if it is one of my CLOSE friends who's chosen to reproduce, I always get her a little something as well....

Typically, you would give something for the baby. However, I got a $100 gift certificate for a massage at a pregnancy spa, at my shower, and WOW did I love that!! I give something to the mom if she is a great friend but it's always in addition to something for the baby.
